We're on deadline for the next issue of Taproot. FEAST is shaping up to be a beauty and I love it so much! (Today is the last day to subscribe in time to get that issue as your first!) But I don't love the way deadline time has me staring at a screen for far more hours in a day than I'd like. I use knitting as a reward to myself for all that screen time, and clearly that's working well as I've been knitting up mittens for the kiddos like the mad woman on deadline that I am. The pattern is Little Waiting for Winter Mittens by Susan Anderson and it's such a class knit! I'll tell you more about the hat when it's finish, which might just be in the next 24 hours when I hop on a plane to attend Vogue Knitting Live! I'll be in the marketplace with Taproot through the weekend - stop by to say hi and see if I've finished this hat!

Greetings! I'm Amanda Blake Soule - mother of five, author of three books on family creativity, and editor-in-chief of Taproot Magazine. I live with my family in an old farmhouse in Western Maine where we raise animals, grow vegetables and make lots of things. I write about it all here on the blog. Thank you for visiting!
